EDITORS COMMENTS
Minamoto Yorimitsu Ashigarayama iri no zu," a captivating color woodblock print created by the renowned Japanese artist Yoshitsuya in 1861, presents a mythological scene of the legendary samurai warrior Minamoto Yorimitsu at Mount Ashigara. The print is a detail from a larger artwork, known as an oban triptych, and is a testament to the artistic brilliance of the Ukiyo-e school during the late Edo period. The image showcases Minamoto Yorimitsu, a legendary hero from Japanese mythology, standing at the edge of a serene river, surrounded by the breathtaking autumnal foliage. He is depicted as a large, overweight man, wearing only a loincloth, with a monkey companion by his side. The monkey, with a mischievous grin, splashes water from the river, creating ripples that reflect the vibrant colors of the surrounding landscape. In the background, a majestic waterfall cascades down from Mount Ashigara, creating a stunning contrast of power and tranquility. The print also features various other mythical creatures, including a rabbit and a cataract, adding to the fantastical atmosphere of the scene. The print is a masterful example of the color woodblock printing technique, with intricate details and bold, vivid colors that bring the mythical world of Minamoto Yorimitsu to life. The print's rich heritage is further emphasized by its association with the artistic school of Ichieisai Isseisai and Ittensai, and the influence of the Tokugawa period's artistic sensibilities. Today, this rare and beautiful work of art is preserved and displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago, a testament to its historical and artistic significance. The print continues to captivate viewers with its unique blend of mythology, natural beauty, and human emotion, making it a cherished piece of Japanese art and cultural heritage.
